George is a shy and awkward introvert who is following the path of tradition, leading to an arranged marriage with a childhood friend from Nigeria. He begins to question his destiny after an encounter with Alicia, a stunning Latin woman on her own shaky path to wedlock with an erudite Englishman, her former professor. On the road to their dubious futures, they are thrust together with Gerard, a boisterous and lovesick Frenchman, in his 1960s Citroen. Emotions come to a boiling point when the foursome stop at Alicia's mother's house, a delightfully warm household where passions and intuition run high. The result is a magical transformation of loves and lives.
